Forager says
Not to be confused with marsh samphire, rock samphire is more of a herb than a vegetable and consequently should be used sparingly so as not to overpower other ingredients with its strong flavour. Hence, it can be traditionally found in its pickled form which mellows the flavour.

Rock samphire, cider vinegar, brown sugar, ground cloves, mustard seeds, turmeric, salt.

Refrigerate before and after opening; and use within three months.
Meet Forager
Canterbury, Kent
In 2003 French chef Blaise Vasseur, having witnessed the influence of wild plants on his native cuisine through chefs such as Michel Bras, asked Forager founder Miles Irving to supply wild plants to the newly opened Goods Shed in Canterbury. This spark ignited a wild food renaissance in the UK. Now, 14 years on, a team of highly skilled foragers are hand-picking wild flavours at their peak, full of vitality which speak of the season. This is ‘hyper-seasonality’- a step up from seasonal eating of farmed produce! With over a decade's experience of supplying the best chefs in the UK, you can expect wild ingredients of the highest possible quality delivered to your doorstep to enrich and enliven your meals. By pairing these super-nutritious and flavoursome wild ingredients with the skills and knowledge possessed by talented chefs, these overlooked treasures have been elevated and put back on our plates.
